Friends,
When the Obama Administration announced it was unconstitutionally gutting the
1996 welfare reform law’s work requirements, we knew we had to act. This
landmark conservative policy helped three million Americans achieve independence
from government.
Today, the House voted 250-164 to reject this illegal overreach, thanks to
pressure from conservatives like you. In fact, 19 Democrats voted against Barack
Obama and Nancy Pelosi and for personal responsibility.

See how your Representative voted on our scorecard.
Thanks to hundreds of constituent phone calls, letters to Congress and the
generosity of nearly 1,000 principled Americans, Heritage Action was able to
pressure lawmakers and ensure a conservative victory. We are grateful for your
support to help our team in Washington reach out to critical Capitol Hill
staffers and Members of Congress. With the combination of your voice and our
political pressure, we were able to vote down this Obama administration policy
by a stunning majority.

This is a huge victory, but the
battle is not over. Soon the Senate will vote to block Obama’s illegal
welfare plan, and we
are already preparing for what is sure to be an even tougher fight.
Thank you for your steadfast support. We could not have done it without
you.
Sincerely,
Michael A. Needham
Chief Executive Officer
Heritage Action for
